중국 입국 후 30일 무비자 체류를 연장할 수 있나요?
Last updated:
⚠️ SYMPTOM
30일 무비자 제도에 따라 입국했는데 중국을 떠나지 않고 더 머물 시간이 필요한 경우입니다.
🔍 MOST LIKELY CAUSE
30일 무비자 체류는 단기 입국으로, 중국 본토 내에서 연장이 불가능하며 엄격한 상한선이 적용됩니다.
✓ HOW TO FIX
홍콩, 마카오 또는 제3국(태국, 일본, 베트남 등)으로 출국한 뒤 재입국하여 30일 체류 기간을 초기화하세요. 또는 해외의 중국 영사관에서 L 비자를 신청하고 해당 비자로 재입국하는 방법도 있습니다.
